Question #1127911012Wednesday, 28-Sep-2005
Category: Functions
Do sensors sometimes get discontent with their own prefered information gathering function and would rather have intuition instead? What are the chances of the inverse ever occuring (intuitors would rather have sensing)? -- can'ttellmytype

A1 well, the fact that we need both sensing and intuition to function in this world means that yes, there are times sensors would wish they're more intuitive and intuitives, more sensing. as an intuitive, i always secretly envy my sensor colleages who can do routine things efficiently while i'm having a hard time making sure that i don't make mistakes. -- int/fp

A2 To A1. I am an intuitive too and I have the same problem. What is the cause of our constantly worrying about mistakes. Do we do more mistakes or just worry to much? What should we do about it? Thanks. -- Vlad - INTj
A3 We iNtuitives live in a world where the majority seems to be sensing. This leads to problems, but I still would rather be N than S. Once I figure out how to do a sensing task - usually very quickly and efficiently - I become extremely bored with it. Why would I want to be better at things that bore me? -- econdude
A4 Its in our natures to take our preferred strongest or creative information gathering mode for granted, because it comes the easiest to us. Due to this 'we don't appreciate the water till the wells dry' philosophy, both sensors and intuitives can at times equally admire or indeed envy the abilities of the opposing function. -- Cyclops
